I could see Krispy going out to fight crime every night.

The Holy Potatoes game looked pretty cool from what I saw of it. It appeared to be a nice change from their first game. I just don't know how I feel about the number of references that the game makes; I feel like too many memes would overdo it eventually.

Great podcast, I am excited to check out for honor but I'll hold off until i see cooler types of fighters. I just want some more intresting warrior types, like aztec jaguar warriors or sacred band of thebes. Hell what if they put in a real tank D: it could happen

Hey, y'all whistlebottom here aka dude who made Dark Souls Rap/4PP Community Track. I'm gonna call Nick out and point out that I sent him a bumper music sample literally 7 years ago when he asked for one and I have the e-mail to prove it. That said I love you dudes so I'll hit you up in the contact form again with some other ideas.

Regarding Steam winding down Greenlight: maybe this is my anarchist reflex kicking in, but I'm perfectly fine with every game regardless of "quality" being on the store. I've been hearing folks complain about how the deluge of titles makes it difficult to find good games, but I'm curious how many people actually use Steam's discovery tools as I myself have never touched them; I rely on word of mouth from you folks and other podcasts/sites as my form of curation. In fact, I'm really curious if folks could describe to how they find good, new games using just Steam's tools and not using an outside source or recommendation (bonus points if they can describe it without having to boot up the Steam site or client, which would indicate that this is a process they regularly go through).

Big thank you for exposing me to Holy Potatoes! We're in Space?! I've been looking for something to satisfy my FTL itch for a while now. There's only a few hundred hours one can devote to FTL before one may get a bit tired of it.

LEGO Batman was a 7 out of 10, better for comic/ DC/ Batman fans and kids with their parents, not made for single male adults with no kids who has almost no real comic experience. Got me to giggle a couple times, but probably could have saved one of my free passes for Get Out or Logan.
